Earbuds have gotten a lot of attention lately for their ability to crank out music from a tiny, barely perceptible little product—but they’re not for everyone. Some people struggle to keep earbuds in place, while others just prefer a more classic over-ear headphone for their audio.
Fall into the latter camp? Amazon just slashed prices on select, top-rated Philips over-ear headphones. For today only, you can get a new pair of headphones for yourself or someone on your list for up to 29 percent off, with one set of ‘phones costing just $32!
These aren’t just random headphones, by the way—they have legions of fans and tons of great reviews. Check these out.

Reviewers say these headphones are so good, they can change the way you experience sound. “The sounds are definitely more nuanced,” a five-star reviewer wrote. “I had to get used to songs that I have listened before because what appeared to be one single sound turned out to me made out different ones. Be warned, this may even affect what your favorite music sounds to you. On the plus side, you may be able to enjoy stuff you thought you already had a sense of.” Another raved about how sturdy the headphones are. “I sat on them by accident. They didn't break, bend, or show any signs of damage. Your mileage may vary, but I'm 230lbs and they didn't budge. Built like a tank,” they wrote.
